The critical behavior of ferromagnetic transition is investigated by bulk magnetization measurements for La0.85Co1.68As2 crystal with a ThCr2Si2-type structure, grown by using NaAs as a flux, in which the vacancies on the both La and Co sites exist. The critical exponents [ = 0.388(3), = 1.44(2) and = 4.855(9)] with Curie temperature = 99.4 K are obtained, whose self-consistency and reliability are verified by the Widom scaling law and the scaling equation. The critical exponents of ferromagnetic transition occurring in La0.85Co1.68As2 belong to the three-dimensional (3D) Heisenberg model, and suggest that the magnetic interaction decays as with a short range coupling. These results provide helpful information for understanding the mechanism of ferromagnetism emerging in La0.85Co1.68As2 compound.

La0.85Co1.68As2晶体中铁磁转变的临界行为
通过使用 NaAs 作为通量生长的具有 ThCr 2 Si 2型结构的La 0.85 Co 1.68 As 2晶体的体磁化测量来研究铁磁转变的临界行为,其中 La 和 Co 位点上都存在空位. 临界指数 [ = 0.388(3), = 1.44(2) 和 = 4.855(9)] 居里温度 = 99.4 K,其自洽性和可靠性得到了 Widom 标度律和标度方程的验证。La 0.85 Co 1.68 As 2 中发生的铁磁转变的临界指数属于三维(3D)海森堡模型,并表明磁相互作用衰减为带有短程耦合。这些结果为理解 La 0.85 Co 1.68 As 2化合物中出现的铁磁性机制提供了有用的信息。
